Description
This accelerated dual degree option allows students with a primary interest in microelectronic processes and the fabrication of semiconductor devices and integrated circuits to further their knowledge in electrical engineering technology areas and perform leading-edge research in the design and fabrication of semiconductor devices, circuits, and systems. MS courses in electrical engineering that cover analog/digital IC design, computer system design, and micro-electromechanical systems will greatly expand the learning experience and opportunities presented to students enrolled in the microelectronic engineering BS program. Accreditation The bachelor of science program in microelectronic engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, https://www.abet.org . Visit the college’s accreditation page for information on enrollment and graduation data, program educational objectives, and student outcomes.
